Description michal.halenka 2016-01-14 09:05:50 UTC 
According to 'equery uses app-arch/pigz-2.3.3', the symlink USE flag will:
'Force kernel ebuilds to automatically update the /usr/src/linux symlink',
but according to the ebuild code, this USE flag does something different:

if use symlink; then
	dosym ${PN} /usr/bin/gzip
	dosym un${PN} /usr/bin/gunzip
